Wednesday

Wednesday, I started my day with 40 crunches, then work. I intentionally walked extra around work today, which felt great. After work and grocery shopping, I did the second day of my BiggerFasterStronger running workout. I did 6 400's with a nasty wind tonight. I finished with 15 10-second crunches (you crunch up and then hold it for 10 seconds before releasing) and my flexibility workout.

So, for dining today. I started my morning with Oatmeal sprinkled with some cinnamon and flax seed and milk. Lunch was out with a client, and I enjoyed Mexican chicken soup (with TONS of sliced avocado!) and chips and salsa. Supper was a spinach and greens salad with chicken and some sprinkled Parmesan cheese topped with Newman's Own dressing. For the day: 1,375 calories; 7.5g saturated fat; 1,958mg sodium; 164g carbohydrates; 27g fiber; 20g sugar; and 105g protein.

All in all, a great day!

Good day!

So, two great days of exercise and eating...have to record it!

Monday, from midnight on, I had soup, broccoli, yogurt, an apple for my overnight meal at work. My breakfast was a smoothie with strawberries, milk, an orange, flax, protein powder, and raw oats. Supper (after a good sleep) was 2 soy burgers and rice. My exercise was a 3x3 workout on bench press with 275, 285, and 295 along with dumbbell flys, 2 sets of 10 at 45 lbs. I also ran 2 800-meter runs, 10 court sprints during a basketball workout, and I did my flexibility workout. Last, but not least, I did a crunch workout on an exercise ball of 2x25, then I did a quick-switch workout with 10 situps to 15 jumping jacks for 3 sets of each. Food totals: 1,443 calories; 7g saturated fat; 3,478mg sodium; 223g carbohydrates; 44g fiber; 11g sugar; 118g protein.

Tuesday, I had breakfast of a ham, egg, and cheese croissant and sugar-free Amp energy drink. Lunch was a Healthy Choice meal, a veggie mix, an orange, and two Vitamin Waters (one Zero, one not). Supper was two soy burgers, a veggie mix, and milk mixed with protein powder and flax. I did a deadweight lifting workout today of 3x3 with 365, 385, and 405 along with front dumbbell shoulder raises at 2x10 at 35lbs. and dumbbell neck raises at 2x10 at 100lbs. I also did a flexibility workout. This evening, I ran a Couch-to-5K workout, but I added 10 minutes of running for a total workout of 40 minutes with warm-up and cool-down walks. Nutrition totals: 2,086 calories; 17g saturated fat; 4,592mg sodium; 273g carbohydrates; 37g fiber; 98g sugar; 143g protein.

I had high levels of sodium both days, and the regular Vitamin Water added a lot of sugar to my Tuesday. Overall, I have felt awesome, even with some soreness in my ankles from the running. I'll keep it up!

Sunday and Monday

Because blogger was not working, I couldn't get on the last two days. My weekends are odd because of my overnight job from 11pm-7am Saturday and Sunday night. So I took from midnight to midnight Sunday and midnight until bed on Monday.

Sunday I had a Sausage, Egg, and Cheese croissant sandwich for breakfast, then slept most of the day before having a Green Giant steamer bag and a banana.
